From BITEC's state-of-the-art manufacturing facility, over 30 membranes are produced using the most current technology for modifying asphalt with made-on-purpose APP and SBS polymers. BITEC membranes offer the contractor both conventional and current methods of application, and are available in either smooth surface or mineral surface in a variety of colors.
You can trust Bitec for quality products, installed with ease. Bitec’s Self-Adhering Imperflex Membranes are composed of select SBS polymers blended with distilled asphalt and reinforced with a high-strength fiberglass mat for unparalleled roofing protection. The membranes are protected even further with a split, silicon-coated release film which contributes to the system’s shockingly simple installation. The Imperflex system is ideal for use on residential roofs, certain commercial roofs, or any roofs where roof slopes prevent effective use of shingles, tile and/or metal, but have a positive slope.
Benefits of IMPERFLEX:
We’re a rarity in the roofing industry. More than 30 years ago, we developed a proven formula for our APP and SBS roof membranes (derived from Europe – the birthplace of modified bitumen membranes) and we have refused to alter it.
When raw material prices rose and most others in the industry chose to cheapen their products with filler material, we remained loyal. We will not sacrifice quality because when it comes to roofing, quality is key.
We impart the same philosophy of quality & commitment across all aspects of our business. We deliver on the promises we make and exceed customer expectations at every level.
We have consistent leadership, we value our employees and we care about our customers - a winning combination that has helped establish us as a trusted leader in the industry. To us, being smaller is an advantage. We have extreme control over the quality of our products and can offer the kind of direct individualized support you don't always get from mega corporations. We have a team of technical experts available to offer the support you need before, during, and after your project. Let us help ensure your project is a success.
